Hello and welcome to our profile! We are Connie and Marty from the Midwest region of the United States. We are retired from our careers at Caterpillar where we had the wonderful opportunity to spend six years living in France and three years living in England. Since that time, we have caught a travel bug that cannot be cured. House caring has given us a unique perspective in which we have the wonderful opportunity to live like you while caring for your pets and property.
Our hobbies and interests align perfectly with the usual house caring needs of homeowners. When our children were young, we raised two golden retrievers, Sophie and Chloe. They were originally supposed to be "outside dogs." After the first night, they were welcomed into our home, and they quickly became beloved members of the family. We have a soft spot for animals and took in some cats in need of a home. We also enjoy landscaping and growing our own vegetables and herbs and have spent many therapeutic hours planting flowers, pulling weeds, raking leaves, and sculpting bushes.
We have had many wonderful house-sitting experiences during the last five years. We cared for dogs and cats in many homes in different locations. On several occasions, the pet sitting duties also included watching over the chickens. We have tended gardens in the South of France and worked in the largest botanical garden on the island of Nevis in the Caribbean. We have always been a couple who takes exceptional care of our belongings and are even more conscientious when caring for someone else's home.
We appreciate you checking out our profile and look forward to the opportunity to take care of your home!
